[v2,2/3] vhost: rework async feature struct

  No need to use bitfields in the structure rte_vhost_async_features.
This patch reworks the structure to improve code readability. In
addition, add preserved padding fields on the structure for future
usage.

Give the struct also contains config/tuning stuff, I don't think
rte_vhost_async_features is a good name, maybe rte_vhost_async_config?

That's a lot of padding! I hope the application won't have to use that
much to configure the async feature one day :)

I would prefer a uint32_t features bitfield for consistency with Vhost
library, with enums for the features definition.
